Abstract:
The implementation of the K to 12 Curriculum is challenged by the insufficiency of\r\nlocalized instructional materials and the lack of teacher’s manuals. Literature show that\r\ncontextualization and localization could enhance mathematics instruction. As such, this\r\ndescriptive developmental research was conducted to develop and validate localized lesson\r\nexemplars in teaching General Mathematics based on the results of the Needs Assessment\r\nSurvey of nine General Mathematics teachers from the City Schools Division of Laoag for the\r\nschool year 2017-2018. Weighted means and descriptive interpretations were used to analyze\r\nand interpret results. Findings revealed that there were lessons in General Mathematics that\r\nneed to be contextualized. The developed lesson exemplars were found valid for use as\r\nreflected from the evaluation made by seven experts using a Validation Checklist. The localized\r\nlesson exemplars were developed based from the results of the identified competencies in the\r\nneeds assessment survey. It is recommended that the material be tried-out to determine its\r\neffectiveness in improving students’ performance in General Mathematics and be used by the\r\nmathematics teachers in the division to improve learning outcomes and serve as a basis for\r\ncontinuous improvement.
